Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "General, could this be a trick by the enemy? They know that we are chasing their headquarters. So they sent additional troops to sneak attack our supply depot." A Moroccan officer whispered.

    ¡°Nonsense, all idiots know that they are covering their headquarters in this way. But even if we know their purpose, we cannot abandon Supply Depot No. 2.

    Because Supply Station No. 2 is too important.  After losing the support of Supply Station No. 4, the only thing we could rely on was Supply Station No. 2.  If even there is lost, our two battalions of mechanized infantry will have to become infantry walking on two legs.

    What¡¯s more, those Western Sahara militants will take advantage of this opportunity and spare no effort to attack us.  "The Moroccan commander couldn't help but lose his temper. "So even if we know, we must return to supply station No. 2."  We have no choice at all.  "

    The Moroccan officer could not even raise his head after being scolded, so he could only lower his head and remain submissive.

    Lin Rui and others couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after learning that the Moroccan army had returned to support.

    "It seems that our plan was successful. However, can the reconnaissance force successfully capture their No. 2 supply point? As far as I know, there is a Moroccan battalion there." General Lantom said with some doubts.

    "It can't be taken. Although their military strength is similar to that of Morocco, it is still difficult to occupy the No. 2 supply point before the large Moroccan troops return to support.

    But even so, they can still complete the task.  Because we sent one of our squads with the goal of destroying that supply depot.  It won't be easy to take it, but we can still destroy them.

    Because that supply station stores a large amount of fuel and ammunition.  It is much easier to destroy it than to capture it.  All it takes is a small team to infiltrate.  There is no need to cause massive destruction, just blow up the oil depot and destroy their water source, that will be enough to complete the mission.  Lin Rui replied.

    "What about us?" General Lantom asked.

    "We also have our own things to do. That is to have a good rest and recuperate. We will stay at supply point No. 4, do a good job in vehicle maintenance, and fully supply." Lin Rui replied, "Let the other party think that we also  I can¡¯t run anymore.¡±

    General Lantom nodded, "Okay, let's wait here. Wait for the enemy to come over and chase us again, right?"

    "The general is right. We have been running with the enemy for a day, and now we are feeling a little hungry. Let's go, I think we should try the Moroccan military cans. What does it taste like?" Actuary Shogan smiled.  , "After all, we captured the enemy's entire warehouse."

    The development of things was completely according to the plan of Lin Rui and others.  When the large Moroccan troops returned to supply point No. 2, they discovered that supply point No. 2 was still in the hands of the Moroccan army.

    But most of the supplies were burned, and smoke billowed from the fire caused by the explosion in the oil warehouse.  From the looks of it, it may not be possible to extinguish it even within a week.

    The Moroccan commander looked at the fire with some helplessness, his fists clenched so hard that his palms were covered with sweat.  "Damn it, they blew up the oil depot. Where are the others, why didn't they organize a rescue operation in time?"

    "We tried to put out the fire, but failed. There was too much oil stored here, and the fire was too strong to put out. But at least they didn't destroy the water source." An officer replied.

    Supply point No. 2 is set up in a small oasis. There is a small pond in the oasis that can provide them with enough water.

    Although the Popular Armed Front of Western Sahara can destroy the oil, it cannot destroy the water source here.

    The Moroccan commander nodded, "This can be considered a great blessing among misfortunes. Our current oil reserves are quite sufficient, but the key issue now is the urgent need for water.

    While several officers were talking, a soldier ran in in a panic, "Report. There is a problem with the water source at the supply point."

    "There is a problem with the water source at the supply point?" The commander's expression changed, he grabbed the soldier and asked, "What's going on?"

    "A few soldiers brought water bottles and went to the water source to fetch water. One soldier couldn't help but take a sip of water, but he fell down quickly and died just as he was sent to the medical staff. It looked like he had been shot  Extremely poisonous.

    And we found the bodies of many small animals on the edge of the pond. They must have drank the water in that pond.  The enemy may have poisoned the water source.

    Because there were still several plastic gallon buckets floating on the water, we were able to check them. The labels on them listed several highly toxic drugs.  It should have been randomly abandoned after being poisoned by the enemy.  "An officer ran over and explained.

    "Immediately give the order, no one can?The water in that pond.  shouted the Moroccan commander.

    "I have passed on the order. But now the soldiers are very panicked. Because of the previous pursuit, we no longer have enough water to maintain.

    The soldiers are reducing the amount of water they drink, and each company has started a rationing system for drinking water.  But even this may not be a long-term solution.  "An officer whispered.

    "Without oil and water, we can't hold on for long." The Moroccan commander said coldly, "How much reserve do we have?"

    "Due to the all-out pursuit, the fuel and water we carried were relatively limited. Currently, the fuel is still enough, but the water is no longer available. We still have two water tankers, but the reserves are running out, and they are distributed equally to each soldier.  It¡¯s just one or two glasses of water on a person¡¯s head,¡± the officer replied in a low voice.

    "What about the enemy's situation? I want to know the enemy's situation." the Moroccan commander said impatiently.

    "The enemy troops at Supply Point No. 2 have already evacuated. But at Supply Point No. 4, the enemy troops seem to have not left yet. They have occupied Supply Point No. 4 and seem to be resting on the spot without leaving." The Moroccan officer replied.

    "They didn't take this opportunity to evacuate? I understand!" The commander nodded immediately, "It's not that they didn't take the opportunity to evacuate, it's that they couldn't run anymore.

    Before, they had been transporting people and vehicles together to keep moving quickly.  Vehicles will not be tired, but people will be.  Also, they are not a completely motorized force. They have a certain number of pack horses to help transport the baggage, and the mules and horses also need to rest.

    So they can¡¯t run anymore, so they took the opportunity of our return visit to rest at supply point No. 4.  If we are fast enough, we can still catch up with them before dark.  "

    "What does the general mean, that we will continue to pursue the enemy at supply point 4?" the Moroccan officer asked.

    "Of course, that unit is most likely the combat headquarters of the Western Sahara Popular Front. Taking them down is of great significance." The Moroccan commander gritted his teeth.
